Brians F/R Locked Long Travel Camping and Overland Build

DD in shop for next month getting paint recall done. So looks like truck will DD for the next month. Glad i got it fixed lol.

 

Ive been looking at an awning like this. When open does it cover the tailgate, kinda square off over the tailgate?

 

yea its enough to keep you from getting wet if thats what your wondering lol.

 

Yes pretty much what i was wondering. Food prep and cooking off my swing arm and was curios if it would be covered. Not much rain in AZ but the Shade is what im after! Thanks for the reply, I like watching your build. Great rig Brian

 

Thanks bud! Its been a long one fore sure lol. Might do a crawl box soonish lol. Already got the donor tcase in my garage

 

Replced ujoints in top half of shaft. I already replaced the lower one not too long ago. It helped a good bit. I had a shutter from takeoff that would go away once i got started. New joints seemed to have dimmished it by about 70%. The CB seems to still be good so I’ll live with the small shutter it has now lol. It goes away in 4wd so i know its not trans or tcase. It was doing it before i replaced trans anyways.

 

Towing one expansive hobby with the other lol.

 

Went to Yotamafia ATL Takeover this weekend. Never disappoints always great time. Stone Mountain is an awesome place. Breland the owner of yotamafia nicest guy. Would support him anytime.

got to flex the truck out. Happy with flex. Can squeak a little more out as well once I tub fender and move bump up a little. Pretty happy consider the other truck was SAS lol. @ARCHIVE with the rear flex!

 

Finished my backseat cubby storage. Worked well for my tools and room to put Jackery. Opened up space in my bed drawer system now. Made things more organized.

 

Went camping this weekend with @Nic S . It was a wet and rainy one but still had a good time. Also got to test out the new diesel heater.

 

Didn't know you grabbed a batwing

 

yea i got one a couple of months back

 

Does it give pretty good coverage? How far does it pull out? I've never seen one in person.

 

I got one that olnly covers the bed. I wanted it that way so i didnt have a massive awning running the length down my truck. It gets good coverage. Perfect for my needs.

 

Gotcha. I wasn't sure how far out it came from the truck. Looks pretty dang good.

 

Its pretty good. Came in clutch Saturday

 

Hi Brian
I'm thinking of getting some of these.
How do you like them?
Any issues with the light pattern?

 

They are nice. I think they have good visibility and cut off. You do have to adjust them out of box but not hard to do.

 

Went out to the local park and camped Friday before Christmas. Hadn’t had much time around the end of the year. It was fun.

 

New Whip. 23 Tundra 4x4 limited. Yes im still keeping Taco.
